**Mumbai, India** – The 45th match of IPL 2025 saw a thrilling encounter between the Mumbai Indians (MI) and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. LSG captain Rishabh Pant won the toss and opted to field, a decision that initially seemed shrewd but ultimately proved less successful.

Ryan Rickelton and Suryakumar Yadav led the charge, scoring 58 and 54 runs respectively, with Yadav securing the Orange Cap. Other notable contributions came from Will Jacks (29) and Corbin Bosch (20) in their debut match. However, Rohit Sharma’s early dismissal for 12 runs proved to be a small setback for MI.
